China led.

So I ordered one of those 165 watt led fixture for my tank. My tank is 36x19x24 will one be enough? It's 70 gallon tank. It's dimmable full septrum. I will be housing coral and fish. Also if that's enough what percentage should I use. Exp 50/50 white and antics ? Thank you.
 
You "might" need two. It just really depends what you want to keep and where you want to keep them. Depending how high you mount them and what the optics are on your particular model. Most of those types of LED fixtures can generally cover a 2 food length fairly well so it might be a bit lacking towards the edges.

As far as spectrum goes, you will just have to see mostly what you and your corals prefer. Just get it set up and dial it and see what your corals like. The white isnt nearly as important as the blue/others so once you get those dialed in you can play with the white a bit for cosmetic purposes.
 
So I run two of those fixtures on my 120 gal. 4feet wide by 2feet deep My blues are up all the way but whites only about 50% ( started at 25% and went up 5% every 2 weeks ) if I try raising the white intensity my corals start bleaching
 
I made the switch from halides last october and loving it ........except for the pictures with too much blue in them. Lol
 
Thanks

Thanks

Thanks for the input and that tank looks amazing. Yeah I'm little confused. If it was 4 ft then two would be fine I would assume but 3ft its like in the middle lol.
